Allan, With some, cable modem is the only choice but if given a choice, DSL is usually better.

My cable company allows use of your own cable modem, or you can rent one from them. I bought a Motorola cable modem and a LinkSys 4 port/wireless router for my setup. The internet service, assuming you already have cable (which I did) is $30/month. Only $9 more than I was paying for 56K dial-up, after the $9.95/month promo rate I was on expired and they jumped to $21.95/month. DSL is not available where I live. Too far from the concentrator.
